Example 1

[0196]

[0197]—Production of Intermediate Layer—

[0198]Silicone rubber (IVS4312, manufactured by Momentive Performance Materials Inc.) was applied onto a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film, and the applied silicone rubber composition was heated to cure at 120° C. for 30 minutes, to thereby form a thin film having a thickness of 100 μm.

[0199]Subsequently, the thin film was subjected to a corona discharge treatment under the following conditions. Thereafter, the PET film was peeled. In the manner as described above, an intermediate layer was obtained.

[0200]

[0201]Applied voltage: 100 V

[0202]Cumulative energy: 60 J / cm2

[0203]Reaction atmosphere: air

[0204]—First Electrode and Second Electrode—

[0205]As for each of a first electrode and a second electrode, AL-PET 9-100 (thickness of aluminium foil: 9 μm, thickness of polyethylene terephthalate film: 100 μm (cover material)) manufactured by PANAC CO., LTD. was provided.

[0206]—Production of Element—

[0207]The obtained intermediate la...

Example

[0216]Rank A: The value was 15 times or greater compared to Comparative Example 1, and the electricity generation performance is significantly improved.

[0217]Rank B: The value was 10 times or greater but less than 15 times, compared to Comparative Example 1, and the electricity generation performance is significantly improved.

[0218]Rank C: The value was 5 times or greater but less than 10 times, compared to Comparative Example 1, and the electricity generation performance is improved.

[0219]Rank D: The value was greater than 1 time but less than 15 times, compared to Comparative Example 1, and the electricity generation performance is slightly improved.

[0220]Rank E: The value was 1 time, compared to Comparative Example 1, and the electricity generation performance is identical.

[0221]Rank F: The value was less than 1 time, compared to Comparative Example 1, and the electricity generation performance is degraded.

Example 2

[0222]

[0223]—Production of Intermediate Layer—

Silicone rubber (KE-1935, manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd.) was applied onto a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) film, and the applied silicone rubber composition was heated to cure at 120° C. for 30 minutes, to thereby form a thin film having a thickness of 100 μm.

Subsequently, the thin film was subjected to a corona discharge treatment in the same manner as in Example 1. Then, the PET film was peeled to thereby produce an intermediate layer of Example 2.

[0224]—Productions of Element and Electric Generator—

[0225]An element and an electric generator of Example 2 were produced using the produced intermediate layer in the same manner as in Example 1.

[0226]

[0227]>

[0228]The produced intermediate layer of Example 2 was subjected to a measurement of an infrared absorption spectrum in the same manner as in Example 1. As a result, the variation rate of the peak intensity ratio was 0.80. It was confirmed from the obtained vari...

Abstract

An element including: a first electrode; an intermediate layer made of a silicone rubber composition containing a silicone rubber; and a second electrode, where the first electrode, the intermediate layer, and the second electrode are disposed in this order, wherein a peak intensity ratio (1095±5 cm−1/1025±5 cm−1) of an infrared absorption spectrum of the intermediate layer varies along a vertical direction relative to a surface of the first electrode, and to a surface of the second electrode.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to an element and an electric generator.BACKGROUND ART[0002]There have been conventionally attempts for effectively utilizing the energy generated by vibrations of a structure, such as roads, bridges, and architecture, vibrations of a moving body, such as cars, and train carriages, and vibration due to human activities. As for a method for effectively utilizing the energy generated by vibrations, there is a method where vibration energy is converted into electric energy. Examples of such a method include a system utilizing a piezoelectric element, and a system utilizing electrostatic induction.[0003]The system utilizing the piezoelectric element uses mainly a ceramic-based piezoelectric element, and utilizes a phenomenon that electric charge is induced at a surface of the piezoelectric element when distortion is applied to the piezoelectric element due to vibrations.[0004]The system utilizing the electrostatic induction typically us...
